Re: 5G versus better existing services

We don't need 2G and 3G - finish building out the 4G and start with 5G. It's impressive how 4G has built out in my area (Essex). For 10 years, there have been 3G 'not-spots' and then within a couple of years, 4G is available in far more places than 3G ever was. This could be because of the lower frequencies that 4G can use, as well as improvements in the technology used. Why not just get rid of the 2G networks, gradually phase out the 3G and reuse frequencies where possible?
